The Cup of Suffering

Don't we sometimes wonder our problems are the biggest ever and they can't be resolved? What am I talking about? We don't sometime wonder, we "always" wonder this fact.  Well, how many of us ever even try to look at the brightest side of the coin, (you are lucky if you do that and I applaud you for this).  

This amazing quote by Paulo Coelho is so strong and should leave an everlasting impact on us.

"The cup of suffering is not the same size for everyone!"

Of-course not, there are people who suffer the every second of their life, but never complain, never cry to others, never accuse others for their problems and in my eyes, they are the most luckiest and content people on Earth and are the beauty of this planet.  

Why not take few minutes out of our time and analyse ourselves.  How we act and how we react!

I am sure we'll find that our problems are not bigger than many people around us.

For people who understand Urdu, I am quoting Sir Ashfaq Ahmed, one my fav. writers.

"Main ny apnay baba je say pocha k "baba jee yeh be-chainee kio hai? kio itni pereshaani hai? kio hum sakoon-e-qalb aur itminaan kay sath nahi beth sakty?"  to unho nay kaha k " dekho! Tum apni pereshaani ki pootliaa apnay saamnay na rekha kero- inhay khuda k paas lay jaya kero. woh in ko hall ker day ga. khud hal kernay ki koshish kerty ho lakin tum inhay hal nahi ker saktay.."

This Kalam is written by Hazrat Baba Farid and sang by late Sir Pathane Khan. Another melodious and original piece of Spiritual Music.  Which will not only sooth you but take you to unbelievable heights of inner realities.

Move Forward

Paulo Coelho is an inspirational writer.  His writings move around finding the "true-self" and recognizing the meaning of human-existence and his inner powers.  I haven't read him a lot. But my intro. to him was through "Veronika Decideds to Die" and I must say his story-telling method really struck me. I have also read his famous and best-selling novel "The Alchemist", which is also a great piece of writing.  

I enjoy reading books that talk about human-mentality in both internal and external ways.  

Well, that was something about Paulo Coelho "that I think", you don't have to agree with me, whatsoever!

There comes situations in life where there is no turning back. Absolutely no way to turn back and do things the way we want and like to happen.  Then, we have choice to move forward, but which way? Is the question! The answer lies in you!! You can decide where you want to go and how you want to get there.  There are always many ways to get to one destination.  Simple as that, where you want to go. If you want to travel to another country, you most probably would take Plane, another city, Train, another Town, Cab, another Street, Bus or Bicycle and some roads are only travelled through Walk.  Keeping that in mind, some ways can be only decided and travelled from your internal will-power.

So, how do you want to move forward? Through a way that takes you to the destination quickly or through the one that takes you successfully? 

Chareenda Yaar by Pathane Khan (Late)

I love Sufiana Kalam (Spiritual Music).  It gives me a relaxing and serene feeling and I feel very close to my Creator.
This soothing and melodious Kalam by late Pakistani folk singer Sir Pathane Khan is so pro-founding and the words meant to tell us who and how we are.
